Thomas Walden, in his book de sacramentis, & sacramentalibus, saith, that after Wycliffe, many suffered most ⟨p. 285⟩cruel death, and many also did forsake the Realm. In the number of whom was William Swinderbie, Walter Brut, John Purvey, Richard White, William Thorpe, Raynolde Peacock, Bishop of Asaph, and afterwards of Chichester: John Scot, and Philip Norris, which being excommunicate by Pope Eugenius the fourth, anno 1446. appealed to a general, or ecumenical Council. Peter Paine, who flying from Oxford into Bohemia, did stoutly withstand the Sophisters, as touching both kinds in the Sacrament of the supper: and afterward, (among the rest of the Orators) was one of the fourteen that were sent to the Council at Basil: where, by the space of three days, he disputed upon the article touching the civill dominion of the Clergy: in the year 1438.

Also, the Lord Cobham favoured, and followed Wickliffe's doctrine, as did the Bohemians, who (by the means of a Bohemian, Student in Oxford, of a noble stock, that carried with him into Bohemia certain of Wickliffs book De realibus universalibus, de civili jure & divino, de Ecclesia, de quaestionibus variis contra Clerū, &c.) had knowledge of the doctrine of Wycliffe.
